Vetex has a very weird and irritating habit of adding things that are either meant to be part of larger features in the far future, or just not meant for us to have until the far future. This is one of the games 3 largest issues, along with replayability and optimization. What makes me really want to talk about this are people talking about how we just got an update that was hyped up just for the majority of the content not meant to be played yet.
This isn’t Early Access anymore, vetex needs to focus right now instead of preparing for what’ll just feel like a Full Release Pt. 2 (when all of this stuff we have finally becomes useful and doable). Once the game is finished, this issue will just make replayability even worse.
There’s not much early game content. Most of the things we do have right now aren’t designed to be done as you’re leveling, it’s stuff you do after you finish leveling a slot or are done with the story. This game is just going to be a prettier Blox Fruits if vetex doesn’t lock in. “The fun part comes once you’re 100 hours in”.
Examples:
Lost/Ancient Magics: some already exist and have existed for years, yet we won’t get them until at the very least 2028
Arcanium Weapons and Ship gear: intentionally awful because they’re lower tier counterparts for higher tier weapons we’ll get in the future. ( Kind of funny how the lower tier counterparts aren’t even good at lower tier content, we’re in early game and they are bad at a time when they should be mid tier. And the issue is the mechanics, so the even the higher tier will have the same issue. )
Dragons: the ones with actually worthwhile drops aren’t meant to be beaten yet, which is why the design is so horrible. Meant for the future.
Dragonblood ritual: the beast defense half isn’t useful yet. Only 2 enemies/enemy types exist that you’d need them for, Omen and high tier dragons, which are both meant for the future. There are more that’ll be added, but when they are they won’t even be designed to be beaten until an even later future. ( though honestly, beast defense will probably never be useful. We can beat adolescent dragons and krakens without it’s help while we’re equals, I can’t logically believe we’ll need it’s help when we fight ancient dragons and the omen when we’re equals )
